Had an amazing getaway with my friends! We explored the beautiful Monterey beaches, attended a show at the Pacific Repertory Theatre, and enjoyed art classes at Carmel Visual Arts. The location was super convenient for all activities. The cottage was cozy and clean, making our stay comfy and memorable!
One downside was that the WiFi reception was poor, which made staying connected tricky. But we managed to enjoy our time despite that.

Couple's getaway paradise
The cabin we stayed in was incredibly charming, surrounded by nature and flowers. I was blown away by how comfy the bed was, better than my own at home and the peaceful quiet of the place was a luxury in itself.
It wasn’t exactly a bargain but still worth the experience.

pleasant stay with room for improvement
The room provided a great river view that added a calming ambiance. I loved the cleanliness and comfort of the king-sized bed, which made for restful nights. Being just a quick drive away from attractions like Point Lobos State Park was a huge plus. Plus, the garden area offered a lovely backdrop, perfect for quiet moments.
However, the lack of privacy on the bathroom window was a concern.

Oh, the pastries! The local spots served up such delicious Welsh pastries that it turned breakfast into an adventure. Plus, the cottage was a gem—super clean and felt like a cozy escape, perfect for enjoying morning coffee in the tranquil patio. And the proximity to local eats like From Scratch made every meal a delight.
I almost missed out on a potential discount for my painting workshop stay since I didn’t know about it beforehand. It could've been a fab little bonus on top of an already thrilling experience!
